Upon my arrival in Nepal on April 19/2011 I immediately proceeded to a little town in West Nepal called Surkhet. Here, is the home of the Kopila Valley Home & School that houses more than 40 orphans from unimaginable pasts and educates over 150 children at the school they constructed a year ago. This place and organization ( www.blinknow.org ) was started by Maggie Doyne five years ago and has built this place from the ground up…. literally with her bare hands as well as the support and help from the locals of Surkhet.
I spent just over 2 weeks working with the children teaching dance, helping the children with their English, and we cannot forget football everyday @ 5pm. The home and school welcomed me with GIANT smiles and warm arms and I will never forget the children of Kopila Valley as I just wanted to show my appreciation by sharing a little video I put together for them. I WILL MISS YOU AND NEVER FORGET YOU!!

ALSO THANK-YOU TO THE WONDERFUL VOLUNTEERS(Jake, Kaitlen, and Lexy) ALSO A MASSIVE SHOUT OUT TO LIBBY (Maggie’s Sister) WHO WAS SOOOOO AWESOME AND RADICAL THROUGHOUT MY TIME AT KOPILA VALLEY…P.S.-YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!
